122 Degrees !
That's the temperature in Doha, Qatar today where Drew is stationed. I can't imagine what that feels like. That's the high for the day - at night it dips down to 90 degrees. Can't wait until he is back.
Jan, I have been in 122 degree heat before...one of the times that I was visiting in AZ it hit that record breaking mark. They even grounded airplanes for a while that day...not knowing how they would respond to the extreme heat. I can tell you I have never felt so hot before. Not knowing how hot it was my mother and I ventured out to mail a package to my daughter and do a little shopping. After I got inside where it was nicely air conditioned and was waiting to mail the package, I just kept getting hotter and hotter. My body just didn't know how to handle that temp! 122 is VERY hot! I know that you will be glad for him to get home...for more reasons than just cooler temps! I'll pray for his safe return to the good ol' US of A!

Thanks, Lois. It's not only very hot, but also humid. I am eager to hear about it from him when he return. Thanks for your prayers.
